Hair Transplant Cost in India
One of the most common question asked by patients before undergoing hair transplant surgeryis - “How much does a hair transplant surgery cost?”.No matter what type of procedure you are getting done, you have to remember that there will be a price tag attached to it and most medical procedures tend to be expensive. Most of the times, people have this notion that a hair transplant procedure will burn a hole in their pocket, but it is important to remember that good quality, experience and a high level of professionalism will demand money.However, at AK Clinics, the final cost of hair transplantation will depend solely on what kind of procedure & surgeon you are going for. when you come to AK Clinics for a hair transplant, we will offer you a procedure that is minimally invasive and our team will ensure that you have the most natural looking results, with the least amount of discomfort.

In General, the cost of hair restoration procedure in India ranges from INR 45,000 to INR 4,50,000 and is based on various factors like surgeon's expertise, location of the surgery, number of grafts, and technique used, etc. There are various other finer factors like hygiene, quality of instruments, comfort, and pain management. The patient should expect some higher charges with clinics that maintain everything as per international standards – the main reason is that they incur higher costs.
With the advancement of technology, hair transplants are more accessible and affordable, but most of the patients are reluctant to go for hair transplant surgery because of less knowledge of the procedure and its cost.India offers cost-effective options as compared to other countries.
Apart from the cost of surgery, blood tests before the surgery and the medications required after the surgery are also chargeable. It is important to be aware of the fraudulent practices that are increasing with the fast-growing market and only go to a clinic after inquiring about the reviews and results.

Graft Estimation for Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern baldness can range from minor recession of hairline in grade 1 to extensive baldness in grade 7. The requirement of the grafts and thus, the cost of the surgery will depend on the grade of baldness and number of sittings.
| Grade | Grafts required (Minimum) | Grafts required (Maximum) | Technique suggested |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nil | Nil | Hair transplant is not recommended and some medicines can be used to promote hair growth | |
| 800 | 1200 | Hairline reconstruction by FUE | |
| 2000 | 2500 | FUT/FUE for hairline + PRP/ LLLT for crown | |
| 3000 | 4000 | HT by desirable technique + BHT. Medical therapy is mandatory to preserve the pre-existing hair. PRP and LLLT can be done. | |
| 4000 | 6000 | Surgery can be done over 2 sessions with FUE or FUT or BHT | |
| 5000 | 8000 | Giga sessions done over 2 sittings with FUE or combination of FUE and FUT | |
| 6000 | more | 2-3 sittings may be needed. Artificial hair restoration should be explored. |

| III | 2500 | 3000 | 2-3 sessions FUE |

Frequently Asked Questions
- They do not follow guidelines from Medical Council & ISHRS for having only a qualified doctor do the incisions and extraction.
- Also, they follow very poor sterilization techniques causing long term side effects.
- They use low quality instruments to cut the costs; simple forceps used in implantation can cost anywhere between INR500 to INR8000 but the cheap one offers very low precision.
- They do not know or keep record of any transection rate that may cause damage to the donor area.
It is important that that patient should not go looking at the lowest cost but a reasonable cost. You may use facilities like 0% finance on hair transplant to stagger the same rather using a low quality service

Raj Jaswal
I started facing hair loss at the age of 26 but it was not very noticeable. But at 29 the hair loss progressed very quickly and crown almost became empty. And further my hair line receded quickly. Now at the age of 31 I started looking very old. I tried many medicines like homeopathic etc etc but nothing seems to work. Then I started searching for my options and finally decided for a hair transplant.

I can see good results post-transplant. Overall good. As suggested, I may go for further transplant for crown area. I am currently taking 6 months cyclical therapy again to stop hair fall. Then will take the decision accordingly. I can say I would prefer someone for A K Clinic. As it is giving person the way to live more happily..?
